NAAY The Portal — Cristalino: a crystal and Mexican-silver bottle with a circular void at its centre

Collection I

Three worlds. Nine expressions.

Every bottle is a numbered sculpture. Tap a piece to see its world, materials and edition.

The Portal — Cenote: emerald crystal and Mexican silver around a circular void

World I

The Portal

The circular void as axis: light, transparency and the threshold between worlds.

High-purity crystal, Mexican silver and a central void that frames whatever stands behind it. Three expressions of the same passage: Cristalino is light and water, Cenote is origin and depth, Amber is time and memory.

Obsidian — Temple: a stepped pyramid of faceted obsidian, gold and turquoise with an amber crystal core

World II

Obsidian

The mineral force of black obsidian, the nobility of time and the architecture of ancestral Mesoamerica.

Faceted black obsidian, geometric gold and a crystal core at the heart of each piece: vertical amber in Temple, circular turquoise in Core, smoky lozenge in Origin. Three paths into the same stone.

Ixchel — Mother of Pearl: a spiral of mother-of-pearl and champagne gold with a natural pearl at the centre

World III

Ixchel

Organic flow, the divine feminine, the helix of water and moon.

Named after the Maya goddess of the moon and the waters. Natural mother-of-pearl, crystal and Mexican silver in one continuous spiral: Mother of Pearl is the light inside the water, Guardiã das Águas is the force that nourishes, Tecela Lunar is the eclipse.

The object

A bottle designed as a sculpture.

NAAY treats the vessel as the work. The tequila inside is the reason; the object is the reward.

Sculpture first
Each piece is a 750 ml vessel conceived as a free-standing sculpture: the circular void of The Portal, the stepped pyramid of Obsidian, the helix of Ixchel.
Numbered, one by one
Every bottle carries its own number within its edition, from 001, with a certificate of authenticity. Collection I counts 1,480 objects in nine editions.
Noble materials
High-purity crystal, black obsidian, natural mother-of-pearl, natural turquoise, Mexican silver and aged-gold finishes, cut and set by hand.
The spirit
Extra añejo tequila, 100% blue Weber agave, Jalisco, Mexico. 750 ml.
The ritual
A rigid collector's case, an opening designed as a ceremony, and a booklet on the world of each piece and on the collection.
Three worlds
The Portal, Obsidian and Ixchel: each with its own geometry, palette and story, all with the same hand.
